I’m a lifelong Toronto renter. I live in constant fear of being forced onto the street

I’ve lived in apartments in Toronto my whole life. I’ve been in my current apartment for nine years — and I’ve watched in horror as apartments around me doubled, then tripled in price. For the past five years, I’ve lived with the terrifying knowledge that if I had to move tomorrow, there would be nowhere for me to go. As a struggling creative and small business owner, even prices in Etobicoke and Scarborough are beyond my reach.
